Bobble beanie and contrabass
Musician just makes everything looks cool dont you think? If you know how a contrabass looks like you would agree that it just looks very beautiful. I came across this amazing band “The Streetles” last week in Nürnberg. The band consists of a contrabassist and a guitarist and basically they just tour around the streets of cool cities in Europe and cover songs. But they are not just covering songs..No no…they cover it so well that the songs sound better when they are playing it. You dont believe me? Just go to their facebook page, give some love by liking the page and enjoy the videos here.

5 Questions for a Designer or a Brand Owner: Outlier
The thing about highly technical clothing is, well they mostly look so technical. But that is not the case with Outlier. They somehow manage to use a function driven design process and high quality technical fabrics without having to compromise on style. I mean when i saw their minimal backpack i was truly amazed. The backpack is made with nonwoven Dyneema so its 10x stronger than steel but yet very light. And then they have the classic wool peacoat that is highly water and wind resistant. Yes to sum it up, Outlier simply delivers amazing pieces. So here it is, the interview with Abe Burmeister, the founder of Outlier (props to Roy for making it happen)
1. Describe your brand with three words:
Freedom, Honesty and Movement
2. Tell us why your brand kicks ass:
We make the things that we think the world needs but that don’t exist yet
3. Name one accessory you cant live without and why:
iPhone is the closest thing cause it eliminates so many other things. We don’t really like objects at Outlier we like anti-objects, things that take the place of multiple things and make your life lighter and easier to move freely around in.
4. Fill in the blanks: When i was a kid ….. and now ….
When i was a kid hungry to learn and now hungry to create.
5. What would be your last meal:
A Clean Slate sandwich from Saltie
Thank you Abe and Roy for doing the interview and i wish Outlier all the success in the future.
Here are some of my favorite pieces from Outlier. More pics
